She best did loue the meane in each delight.

In musike’s skill mongst princes past compare

She was esteem’d; and yet for that delight

The precious time she did not wholly square,

And though in daintie dance she goodly dight

Was matchlesse held for her maiestike sprite;

Yet not in dalliance did she go astray,

Ne yet in dance did dallie out the day.
